Tottenham Hotspur caretaker manager, Ryan Mason, has dedicated his first victory in charge to former coach, Ugo Ehiogu, who died four years ago.
Ehiogu passed away at just 44, after suffering a cardiac arrest at Spurs’ training ground, where we worked as U-23s coach.
Mason, who held the same position before being promoted to first-team duties, worked with Ehiogu while coming through the ranks as a Spurs player.
On the anniversary of Ehiogu’s death, Mason made a winning start to life in temporary charge of his boyhood club.
“I want to dedicate that one to him and his family, he was a great man,” Mason told Sky Sports after the game.
“Everyone within the club still remembers him.”
